Ummm, if 250k of that is pension, then it's not "salary", presumably,
some of the remainder is for expense reimbursement as well, so we are
talking closer to 400k.

It's a lot of money for you and I, but it's cheap as chips compared to
CEOs of many orgs involved in ICANN (think verisign, afilias, etc).
the real question is, does ICANN get value for money?  Methinks the
answer is yes.
